Name: Soldier Bartfield Career Record Name: Soldier Bartfield Career Record: http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=011280&cat=boxer Alias: Jakob Bartfeldt Nationality: US American Birthplace: Lancyzn, Budapest Hometown: Brooklyn, NY Born: 1892-03-15 Died: 1970-10-02 Age at Death: 78 Stance: Orthodox Height: 5′ 8½″ Managers: Bob Clark, Dan McKetrick Soldier Bartfield had a remarkable career of over 220 recorded fights, fighting some of the greatest boxers of all time, multiple times, and at the height of their careers. In addition to the verified fights in the linked record, he began his career in Texas while in the army, supposedly fighting Bob French (W Pts 20) and Battling Hansen (W ko 9), among others. Of course his army service gave him his nickname of "Soldier." According to the record posted on BoxRec, Bartfield had fifty-four fights against recognized world champions or title claimants. He fought generally recognized champions Harry Greb five times, Benny Leonard three times, Jack Britton seven times, Ted "Kid" Lewis six times, Mike O'Dowd four times, Mickey Walker three times, Dave Rosenberg twice, Al McCoy seven times, Mike Glover once, Billy Papke once, Jimmy Jones once, Johnny Wilson once, and Jimmy Slattery once; as well as title claimants like Mike Gibbons three times, Mick King once, Bryan Downey three times, "Kid" Graves four times, and Jock Malone once. He defeated Greb, Lewis, Britton, O'Dowd, Graves, McCoy, Downey, King and Papke. The Bridgeport Telegram 21 June 1921 Lou Bogash welterweight champion of New England and one of the leading contenders for Jack Britton's crown, won on a technical knockout from Soldier Bartfield in the third -round of their scheduled fifteen round bout at the Arena last night. -. Bartfleld claimed to have injured his left arm in the second round of the -bout but continued to fight with the arm dangling; useless by his side until the -boxing- commissioners ordered Referee Terry Lee to stop the bout. Although there were many rumors to the effect that the fight was a fake the boxing commissioners gave it their official sanction last night and declared that so far as they were concerned the promoters could pay Bartfield and Bogash at any time. It was understood by Bartfield's manager that Bartfield would have an X-ray photograph of the injured arm taken today and compared with one taken a few weeks ago on the occasion of the postponement of a previously scheduled bout. Even if t h e X-ray shows no new break the boxing commissioners stated last night that they, would not order Bartfleld's money to be held up. What fighting was done in the bout was by Bogash who hammered Bartfield from the. opening round but who could not seem, to make much of an impression on him. Bogash had a, world of speed and went after Bartfteld strong in the opening round. 'Bartfield landed, only a, few light blows which did no damage to the local boy. In the second round, Bogajsh hit Bartfield several times on the left arm which was injured some months ago and which forced Bartfield .at that time to quit the ring. Suddenly Bartfleld dropped the arm to his side and defended himself with his right hand only. Bogash was after him like a wildcat and slammed him with everything he had but the Brooklyn battler could not be knocked off his feet. The third round was a repetition of the second with Bartfleld still receiving. Bartfleld seemed to be able t o inflict considerable damage with his good arm ;but Bogash's blows continually landed on the injured arm that Bartfield seemed to be suffering so much pain that finally the' boxing commissioners ordered Referee Terry Lee to stop the fight which was done. Bartfleld was examined by the club physician and three other doctors, who all agreed that while there were apparently no bones broken in the injured arm. Bartfield was suffering considerable pain and was unable to continue. The- result, stands as a technical knockout. If Bartfleld was faking it did not appear so to the boxing commissioners who have not ordered that his money be hold up. .

  • Tommy Loughran
    Student Handout 4-Tommy Loughran Despite having fought in the early half of the last century, Tommy Loughran still has an active fan base. He was a prolific fighter, totaling 172 bouts in his career (he won 94—17 by KO—lost 23, drew 9, fought 45 to a “No Decision” result, and recorded one “No Contest”). In his long career, he fought in divisions ranging from the welterweight to the heavyweight. Considered to be a quick fighter who lacked a powerful knockout punch, Loughran nevertheless went undefeated from 1919, the year of his first professional fight, until he came up against Harry Greb in 1923. His style of fighting was based on timing and quickness of the punch, but an injury early in his career influenced his techniques. As the sparring partner for heavyweight great, Jack Dempsey, Loughran tried to get the aging boxer to improve his quickness in preparation for his bout against Gene Tunney. Loughran, who became known as the “Phantom of Philly”, fought against other notables, like the erratic James Braddock and Harry Grebe. When he broke his right hand, after just two years of fighting, Tommy was forced to rely on his left, which became known as one of the best in the history of the Light Heavyweight Division. After having great success in that division, Loughran moved up to the Heavyweight Division. He fought well there, until given a chance at the title versus Primo Carnera, a six foot, 270 giant. With Loughran weighing in at 184, it stands today as the greatest disparity of weight between fighters in a heavyweight title match.

  • Can Murphy Break the Curse?
    This issue brought to you by New Jersey Governor: Can Murphy Break The Curse? By Jacob Rubashkin FEBRUARY 5, 2021 VOLUME 5, NO. 3 Not long ago, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was riding the wave of a re-election win into a top-tier presidential bid. A few years later, politics on the ground have shifted, and Garden State Republicans are grasping 2022 Senate Ratings for power, just hoping to stay competitive in this year’s gubernatorial contest. BATTLEGROUND New Jersey is one of two states (Virginia is the other) that will elect a Democratic-Held (4) Republican-Held (4) governor this year, posing as the appetizer for 2022, when 36 states will Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) NC Open (Burr, R) host a gubernatorial election. Politicos will be looking at both 2021 races Hassan (D-N.H.) PA Open (Toomey, R) for any clues about the national political environment for the midterms, Kelly (D-Ariz.) Johnson (R-Wisc.) including whether the party in power will suffer from the health or Warnock (D-Ga.) Rubio (R-Fl.) economic effects of Covid-19. Solid Democratic (10) Solid Republican (16) Lay of the Land Bennet (D-Colo.) OH Open (Portman, R) New Jersey is a Democratic state. With the exception of 2004, when Blumenthal (D-Conn.) Blunt (R-Mo.)

  • Myrrh NPR I129 This Newsletter Is Dedicated to the Nucry of Jim
    International Boxing Research Organization Myrrh NPR i129 This newsletter is dedicated to the nucry of Jim Jacobs, who was not only a personal friend, but a friend to all boxing his- torians. Goodbye, Jim, I'll miss you. From: Tim Leone As the walrus said, "The time has come to talk of many things". This publication marks the 6th IBRO newsletter which has been printed since John Grasso's departure. I would like to go on record by saying that I have enjoyed every minute. The correspondence and phone conversations I have with various members have been satisfing beyond words. However, as many of you know, the entire financial responsibility has been paid in total by yours truly. The funds which are on deposit from previous membership cues have never been forwarded. Only four have sent any money to cover membership dues. To date, I have spent over $6,000.00 on postage, printing, & envelopes. There have also been a quantity of issues sent to prospective new members, various professional groups, and some newspapers.I have not requested, nor am I asking or expecting any re-embursement. The pleasure has been mine. However; the members have now received all the issues that their dues (sent almost two years ago) paid for. I feel the time is prudent to request new membership dues to off-set future expenses. After speaking with various members, and taking into consideration the post office increase April 1, 1988, a sum of $20.00, although low to the point of barely breaking even, should be asked for.

Flynn The Berkshire Eagle 14 September 1965 FORMER BOXING GREAT Dave Shade discusses his controversial world welterweight championship bout against Mickey Walker while visiting here at the home of his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. William Shade of 263 Barker Road. The fight was held 40 years ago a week from tonight. Walker retained the title, but most newspapermen at ringside felt Shade should have been voted the winner. Shade and his wife drove here from New Smyrna Beach, Fla., where they operate a motel. Shade, now 63, weighs 160 pounds, which was what he weighed in his last fight 30 years ago. 2 Dave Shade, the fellow who was called by many "the uncrowned king of the welterweights," still thinks he licked Mickey Walker for the title 40 years ago next Tuesday night in New York. He said so yesterday in the living room of the home of his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. William Shade of 263 Barker Road, where the 63 year-old former boxer and his wife are spending a vacation from New Smyrna Beach, Fla.

  • Tommy Gibbons Career Record: Click Nationality: US American Birthplace: St
    Tommy Gibbons Written by Rob Snell Thursday, 03 May 2007 Thomas J. Gibbons Name: Tommy Gibbons Career Record: click Nationality: US American Birthplace: St. Paul, MN Hometown: Saint Paul, MN Born: 1891-03-22 Died: 1960-11-19 Age at Death: 69 Stance: Orthodox Height: 6' 0? Reach: 74 inches (born March 22, 1891 in St. Paul, Minnesota, died November 19, 1960) was a boxer who lost the Heavyweight Championship to Jack Dempsey in 15 rounds. The brother of Mike Gibbons, Tommy started boxing professionally in 1911 as a middleweight. Like his brother he was a master scientific boxer who chose to outbox his opponents. In time, he advanced to the Heavyweight class and developed a respectable punch. His biggest fight came near the end of his career when he met heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey on July 4, 1923 in Shelby, Montana. The local backers and the town of Shelby went broke putting on the fight. The great Dempsey battled through the full fifteen rounds before winning by decision. Dempsey was awarded $200,000, whereas Gibbons received expense money. Tommy Gibbons record was 56-4-1 with 44 no decisions, and 1 no contest. He scored 48 knockouts, and was stopped only once by Gene Tunney on June 5, 1925. The names dotting his record read like boxing's hall of fame. Tommy recorded wins over George Chip, Willie Meehan, Billy Miske, Chuck Wiggins, Jack Bloomfield, and Kid Norfolk. Tommy had no decision matches with George "K.O." Brown, Billy Miske, Harry Greb, Battling Levinsky, Bob Roper, Chuck Wiggins, Georges Carpentier, and others.

He started out as a flyweight, aged 14, boxing at the old Judaean Club near Cable Street, St George's, and boxed the world over against the very best men at virtually every weight. He also promoted regularly at Premierland in Whitechapel and was a household name throught Great Britain.
